Good game! Fun and good art.
Great graphics. Not sure if it's a directional key pressing simulator or an old person simulator. Gameplay feels like punishment. Perhaps you have really captured that experience here. Overall, thumbs up!
Interesting, it's a good effort. Wasn't entirely sure what I was doing but I did alright there for a while. That is fun.
I would also like to not start over at the beginning. That said, a good robo-game, I enjoyed it. Thanks!
92% - so close! Nice idea.
@supremefist thanks for playing. The last password is mentioned during one of the conversations.
@hhsaez I just restored the file. Not sure why dropbox did that. Will have to check on it periodically to make sure it stays up. Sorry about that!
@amastryukov thanks for trying! The game itself is as easy it gets. Just use the face icon and click on the characters to talk them. They tell you everything you need to know to proceed, there is no "moon logic" present, though I was tempted, people don't have the patience for that kind of thing anymore. Wish I could have spent more time on making the interactions better. Especially since the Talk (Face icon) and Interact (weird triangular thing) are the most important ones needed to proceed (besides walking ofc). The interact icon doesn't work directly after talking to someone; it helps to move a little bit and then try interacting again. Definitely requires polish. Next time I will try to make the whole interactive experience smoother! Perhaps start with that and move from there! Thanks for the feedback!
@phi thank you kindly for such nice words! I'm glad you liked it :) Should have gone with two button interaction, indeed.
@Vivoubos Thanks, Vivoubos. I didn't have any time left to make it difficult :)
@randomphantom If you run the setup file and choose a different renderer, it should solve it.
@ciogeni fixed! sorry!
@gonutz continuity is probably sth I would have focused on, had there been more time. I went into this thing with very little knowledge, so was constantly trying ways which might not be the most optimal at the time, but easiest rather (at least to my mind). Yup, interaction is indeed a pain and unnecessarily convoluted. As for the theme, there is mention to it throughout the game. The premise is pretty much based around it. The timer itself is a literal anchor to the theme but there are also some allusions to it. Overall I tried my best to stay within the (subjective, broadly defined) parameters of the theme and didn't just slap on a timer to fit it. Thanks for the feedback sir.
Very fun! Now I want more. Good work, supremefist!
Nice! Reminds me a little of into the Eagle's nest. Classic old game. Good stuff.
My fav so far. Great music, easy to get into and challenging. Yes, really nice.
strange graphics, I like it a lot. Very much enjoyed the ride. Didn't punish you like a lot of the other games. Gave you time to breath a little :)
Good mood. Simple game but interesting. Wouldn't mind seeing the story fleshed out more. Thumbs up!
I like it. Gets real difficult. Good adrenaline rush when it starts speeding up. GJ!
Fun one, has a classic top down shooter feel to it. Good work! Will play some more to see if I can get further.
Good one! Enjoyed it. Nice idea.
